This is an attractive 1708 Guillaume De L'isle map of the Diocese of Beziers and the Department of Herault. The map covers part of the Languedoc-Roussillon region in southern France from the Orb River and Autignaguet south, past the city of Beziers, as far as Narbonne and from Saint-Pons-de-Thomieres east to Montpellier.

An inset featuring the plan of the town of Beziers is included in the upper right quadrant. explanations and keys are included on both sides and bottom of map proper. A beautiful title cartouche adorns the upper left quadrant of the map. This map was issued by Guillaume De L'isle in 1708.
